The curselection() method returns a list of indices as strings; if
selectmode==SINGLE, it will return a list of 1 index as a string; to
use the index you have to convert it to an int:
	
label = namelist.get( map(int, index)[0] )

If that doesn't help, the traceback may provide more clues about
what's wrong.
